"I promise I will do my best to represent Pittsburg and the residents and do the best for our future and community," said Kobata after taking her oath Monday night.
The council unanimously appointed Kobata, who was among the four final candidates identified out of the 23 who had submitted their applications to fill the seat left by Scales-Preston.
Kobata, who currently chairs the Pittsburg Planning Commission, has been an active member of the community and serves as a member of the Community Advisory Commission.
Councilmembers were previously given the option to either hold a special election or fill the vacancy via appointment through an application and interview process.
